Thank you to the anonymous person who put a marker for 'Kanzan' on St Patrick St, off Third St between 3rd and 4th Ave, on our map. Joe Condie was kind enough to take photos for me. He said it's a knockout. OK, festival favourite.

I’m surprised to see an ‘Ukon’ in bloom at the same time as the Akebonos. BTW, the Akebonos in Schara Tzedeck Cemetery, which you can see from the Skytrain just west of 22nd St, are also in full bloom.
